HB 6181 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT REQUIRING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF BLOCKED TRUST ACCOUNTS FOR CERTAIN MINORS.

HB 6181 requires parents or guardians who earn income from online content featuring a minor in their care to deposit at least 50% of that income into a blocked trust account. The account must remain inaccessible until the minor turns 18, unless a court grants an exception for specific needs. This policy directly affects families monetizing children's online presence, ensuring a portion of that income is preserved for the minor's future use. The bill aims to protect minors' financial interests by mandating this savings mechanism through statutory requirement.
